Premium Member Love's Will
"Love’s Will" 

If we could just
get over ourselves
turn the light 
inside out
from dark man
see the beauty 
in all, 
save all;
creatures,
great and small;
those,
that to each 
Other
are different 
and invisible;
get over our
competitive
warring, sick 
unilateral demands,
our tainted will
saturated by 
the underbelly 
of hell’s grime;
then, 
perhaps

LOVE
could attain 
Its grand...

Premium Member Parasitism
An example of unilateral symbiosis
would be parasitism such as any mycosis.
Within you could live a bacterium or virus.
To me, it is beneficial. To you, dangerous.
The form could also be manifest within a cyst.
I shall dominate no matter how much you resist.
My descendents shall multiply so...

Premium Member Energy Democracy V Fascism
I suppose
cannibalism
is the logical conclusion
of rabidly overpopulated fascism.

Some cannibals,
perhaps all,
ate their human prey
not for typical nutritional reasons
like other forms of digested nature,
but more specifically
because those dining
hoped their prey's sacred powers
would thereby become their own,
conjoining for their unilateral augmentation,
like fascism.

At first blush
this sounds like appalling inhumane...

Premium Member Struggling Love
I know
you know
you stole our property,
our mutual possession,
our sense of co-ownership,
of belonging together
to grow our health forever.

I know
you took it for your sole ungrateful possession,
to use for your self recreating purposes,
not a subject for open communication,
further evolution of whom we were becoming
together.

You know
I know
you stole...

Premium Member Muffled Cry of An Unborn Daughter
Impregnable fortress, my mother's womb,
Beyond all evil reach, no one can intrude,
Bundled with joy, I rocked and rolled !

Little to my conscious , did I know of the plot,
To kill me inside, even before my birth,
Just because they knew that I was a girl !

Small...

Premium Member Tired
He’s tired of himself sometimes,
tired of always being him,
thinking his thoughts,
feeling as he always does,
negotiating with his desires. 

Inherently selfish, he’s nonetheless 
not quite dull enough
to constantly overdose on himself 
without feeling claustrophobic. 

Boredom makes him curious 
about the still-unexplored mysteries that lie
just on the...

Black and White
I thought black and white 
Is the history of gunpowder 
Exhausted along border points 
To restore fragile peace 
To ease unilateral justice 
And the rule of lore 


They say black and white 
Is justice meted legally out
By oppressor to the hapless 
Vanquished in hot pursuit...

Burning man syndrome diagnosed quite rare

  A life drowned by a sea of intense pain

    Without warning walking unable to bear

       Red ink covering soles with red-hot coals

     Yesterday's dreams cremated...

Premium Member The Civil Polyculture Party
"Before the party begins,"
said the Permaculturist to her pupils,
Yang on the Left,
Yin twins on Right,
processing nondually,
"a brief reminder.
of how to enter a room with appropriate balance."

"This Party Door to life is not hinged for the right-hand dominant side
to swing open and closed
at Ego's Win-Lose competitively...

Premium Member Resilient Trees of Partial Truths
If a statement is True,
such as
I am WhiteMale,
then the oppositional statement
I am BlackFeMale
is False
which enjoys equivalent truth value with
I am NotBlack/NotFemale,
and I am WhiteMale
back where we started,
more obvious rather than less obscure.

But, if a statement is Not(Not True)
and NotFalse,
could it also be Not(Not False)?

Imagine,
if you...

Premium Member Once Called a Season
Spawning a precipice; you switched us off; no good reason
On second thought; no one should take credit or defame,
Unilateral is the only fair way to equally explain
Lackluster would be the sadness of this refrain;

Lamentable was what it left me with; or perhaps disdain,
Envisaging; happy with...

Premium Member Confluent Co-Operations
I grow increasingly challenged
to discern where my innocent thoughts
hopes and fears
challenges and victories begin
where others more wisely end.

I feel wrong to publish thoughts
under just my name
built on shoulders,
plodding feet,
sleight of hands
and great transitional feats
reminding me through Others.

Yet to credit Them
for my creolizing creations,
with solid integrity...

Premium Member Integrity Embraces Diversity
System integrity can grow more deeply resonant
only as diversity grows more widely interdependent.

Diversely rich integrity
longs to universally emerge
unitarian yin-inclusive
and not uniformly yang-dominant,
exclusive
privileged
supremely kleptocratic.

An economic and ecological reason
Win/Lose capital wealth-accumulation values
trend toward historically WesternWhite male racist privileged mono-structures
is because we do not, instead,
cooperatively co-invest time
and energy
